Snow plow setup for wrangler - what's your experince?
Hi,
I'm starting to look into getting a wrangler as a 3rd car to plow my
own driveway. I won't be doing any commercial work, maybe help out a
neighbor or two, but no more. I have two sedans, which I won't/can't
use for plowing.
My driveway is about 300', uphill to the house (not sure about grade).
I have ruled out using snow blower/thrower, and also ruled out getting
a truck. Storage space for the 3rd vehicle and plow is at a premium
in the garage/driveway as well.
When plowing, I'll need to use backdragging because there isn't much
sideway room in front of the garage door (stonewalls on either side).
What setup do you recommend? I looked at truckaccessoriesworld.com,
and the snowsport doesn't work in backdragging mode. Perhaps snow
bear flexblade?
If you've used a wrangler (or any other jeep), I'd like to hear about
what you went through. I'm not familiar with the models (CJ/TJ/etc.),
and never had a 4x4. I'm told I should get a 6cyl model, and there is
a dealer that can fit the wrangler with plow option (air shock, plow,
etc.)

Re: Snow plow setup for wrangler - what's your experince?
I see a lot of them set up with plows. Some even on landscaping
vehicles so they are seeing commercial duty. The local mall has one for
doing the walk ways too.
I see the same places with Jeeps a plows year after year so I would
figure they work all right.
I am thinking on doing that depending on how long my next driveway is...
